[AD-GIFTED] LAZY BEAR LAWRENCE NAVY BACKPACK FROM TRENDHIM.CO.UK


Today's blog post is a review of this backpack that we have kindly been sent by Trendhim.co.uk The back pack is by a brand called Lazy Bear who have a collection of lovely mens bags. Trendhim.co.uk are a mens accessories retailer, they stock a variety of different product and brands. It's super easy to shop as you can shop by category so you can find exactly what you are looking for. Trendhim stock everything from watches, bracelets, bags, sunglasses to jewellery and more. My experience with Trendhim was very good, the website was easy to use and browse and delivery was quick, sent via Royal Mail so I was able to track delivery. 

Clint picked out this bag from the Trendhim website as he's needed a new backpack for a while. He uses a backpack for work but we thought this would also be super handy for days out or a holiday. It's a good medium size not too big but you would be able to fit loads inside. It has a big front pocket with zip aswell as a laptop compartment inside to keep your laptop safe. Clint liked the simple design of the Lawrence bag, it's a Navy blue colour with Tan artificial leather detailing. They do it in a black version too. I think it a really nice smart bag that would be perfect for the commute to work but it's also casual enough to use as an everyday bag or a gym bag. It's a really decent size so you don't need to worry about packing too much stuff. It's a really good quality and the straps are comfy too so great for using on a day out. 

The bag is very nice and Clint is really happy with it. He will be using it as his new work bag, once he's allowed to go back to work. Be sure to check out Trendhim if you are shopping for mens accessories, Fathers Day is next month so a great excuse to pop online and have a browse.   










FASHION: WELLYMERCK WATCH REVIEW



If you have been a reader for a while you will know I love watches, I have an ever growing collection and today I thought i'd share my latest addition from WellyMerck. This is the Classic New York R | 36mm design which I love! The strap is this gorgeous Rose Gold colour and you can choose from a Black or White face. I went for Black as I have alot of watches with a White face.

The watch is of a really good quality, it is weighty but not heavy or bulky. It's very comfortable to wear and easy to put on. The colour of the watch is lovely and the strap is a mesh strap which is really nice, it's different to all of my other watches. 

WellyMerck have a huge selection of different styles available on their website and they stock both men's and women's styles. They also have a selection of alternative straps that you can buy and replace your current strap. This is really easy to do as many of their styles have a cute little clip that makes changing the strap super easy. 

Head over to the WellyMerck website to check out their other styles and use the code 'amypyt'  to get 20% off throughout April.

BEAUTY AND FASHION : WISHLIST

I haven't done a wishlist for a while so I thought i'd pop one together, I seem to be wanting to shop alot at the moment. I've been to Primark a few times and i've just placed a Space NK order so hopefully I can resist buying anything else till payday! I'm doing that thing where you just don't look at your bank balance and hope for the best!

I keep looking at handbags, I nearly bought this grey/ mink colour bag from H&M however I don't tend to use big bags so I put it down and then a girl came into work with this gorgeous J By Jasper Conran bag and I was like OOOOO but when I went into the Debenhams in Birmingham they didn't have it so again I managed to be good and not buy anything.

I bought a few bits in Kiko last month, you can see my haul here but I really want to pick up the Gwen Stefani palette by Urban Decay but I have so so many eye shadow palettes and can't seem to commit to buying it I did think Clint may have bought it me for Valentines but we didn't buy each other presents this year.

I keep looking at gym clothes too, I really want to get back to the gym but I can't really afford my membership right now so i'm going try and stick to my healthy eating and workout dvd. The sportswear in New Look is gorgeous. I love these geometric leggings and this yoga top.

These boots are lovely, it's still too cold outside to wear flats just yet so i'm still living in my boots. These Clarks boots from Brantano would be perfect and keep me going. I could put them away till next year because Clarks are such good quality and they are classic black suede boots. They are also half price right now!

Finally this Abbott Lyon watch, they are all so pretty. I really love the grey strap on this one and I love the silver face. I have a few watches but this one is just so classy and clean and would just go with any outfit.

GRAND CENTRAL BIRMINGHAM LAUNCH WITH T H BAKER




If you haven't heard about Grand Central opening in Birmingham yet, where have you been? A couple of weeks ago Grand Central opened in Birmingham. There is some amazing brands and stores that have taken over the old New Street Station.

I'm so excited about the Cath Kidston store, another Mac store and John Lewis. It's exactly what Birmingham needs. Grand Central is so hustle and bustle its great for the City. There's some really amazing restaurants aswell!

I was a little bit crazy but headed into Birmingham for the Opening night of Grand Central. It was really busy but I think the day had been worse. I headed to T.H Baker for their launch and had such an amazing night.

T.H Baker is such a great addition for Birmingham. They have some amazing brands and stock some great designer brands including Links, Swarovski, DKNY and Nomination.

I had a great night chatting to other bloggers at the event and had a great catch up, T.H Baker put on a fab night!

Check out the T.H Baker website here, the Grand Central station is located right by the escalators which is a great spot opposite the New John Lewis store.

We were also gifted a lovely gift bag full of goodies which I will be featuring and reviewing on the blog soon.
















REVIEW: OLIVIA BURTON WONDERLAND WATCH MINT AND SILVER


Olivia Burton Wonderland Watch - £65 

Clint bought me this gorgeous Olivia Burton watch for Christmas! It's been on my wish list since it was released. I had two gold face watches but I tend to wear more silver jewellery so I really wanted a silver one. I have another wonderland style  and also this one with a floral face
I've recently fell in love with mint so this one is actually perfect,  I know Clint went to alot of trouble to get this watch as it's pretty much sold out, The strap is gorgeous, such a perfect fit. The face is such a classic style, its just perfect for everyday. I love the Olivia Burton watches they are so unique and special. I love every single Olivia Burton watch. They are really affordable aswell, they range around £55-£150 depending on the size and style. As I said this is my third Olivia Burton watch and i'm sure it won't be my last. I'm so happy with the quality, they are really sturdy and last really well. 
I would recommend Olivia Burton watches to everyone, I always get compliments on my watches from my friends and people at work. Olivia Burton is an up and coming brand, they are stocked in stores such as Topshop, Goldsmiths Boutique, Selfridges and John Lewis, i'm sure they are going to be huge!
